All Chapters of Rejected By The Alpha I Made: Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

Chapter 101 – The Hunt BeginsTristan's POVThe moment the captain left our chambers, I did not waste another second.I fastened my cloak around my shoulders before walking quickly into the corridor, where warriors were already gathering after hearing the alarm spread through the palace. The peaceful atmosphere that had filled the halls only moments earlier had completely disappeared. Servants hurried from one side of the palace to the other, guards tightened their grips around their weapons, and every face carried the same expression of concern.No one needed to ask what had happened.The news was already spreading.Nikolai had disappeared.I reached the top of the grand staircase where dozens of guards had assembled beneath the direction of the captain.The moment they saw me, they immediately straightened."My Alpha."I looked across the room before speaking. "Seal every gate leading in and out of the palace."The captain nodded without hesitation. "It has already been done.""No o

Chapter One Hundred and three – A Difficult GoodbyeTristan's POVThe invitation had remained on my desk since early that morning, yet I had not touched it again after reading the seal stamped across the front.It carried the mark of the High Council of Alphas, which meant it was not a request that could be ignored without a very good reason.Every Alpha from the surrounding territories had been called to attend the annual gathering. Matters concerning trade, borders, security, and agreements between the packs would be discussed over several days. Decisions made during those meetings often shaped the future of every territory represented there.Ordinarily, I would have begun preparing the journey the same day the invitation arrived.This time, I could not bring myself to do it.My eyes drifted toward the window before settling on the palace gardens below.Nina was outside with several ladies from the palace, walking slowly along the stone path while the afternoon breeze played gently

Chapter 105Before dawn, the palace remained wrapped in silence.The halls outside my chambers were quiet, and the only sound that reached my ears was the faint crackling of the fire burning low inside the fireplace. The moon still hung in the dark sky beyond the windows, though a thin line of pale light had begun appearing along the distant horizon.I shifted beneath the blankets, hoping to find a more comfortable position.A dull tightening spread across my lower stomach again.I slowly opened my eyes.For several moments, I remained still, waiting for the discomfort to pass."It is probably nothing," I whispered to myself.The doctor had told me many times that the final days of pregnancy could be uncomfortable. My body was changing every day, and our little one seemed determined to remind me of that with every kick and every stretch.I carefully rolled onto my other side."Let us both try to sleep a little longer," I murmured, resting one hand over my stomach.The baby answered wi

Chapter One Hundred and Seven – Just in TimeNina's POVThe pounding against the chamber door grew louder with every passing second.Each blow shook the walls around us, sending small pieces of dust drifting from the wooden frame."My Lady!"The captain's voice echoed from the other side."My Lady, answer me!"Another contraction gripped my body so suddenly that my knees almost gave way beneath me.I fought to remain standing.I could not fall.Not now.Not while Nikolai stood only a step away from me.He heard the captain's voice and slowly turned his head toward the door. For the first time since he entered my chambers, I saw uncertainty cross his face.The guards were getting closer.He no longer had time.His eyes returned to me."You have always been the reason he became difficult to defeat."Before I could move, he stepped behind me and seized my arm.A sharp breath escaped my lips.The cold edge of a dagger rested against the side of my neck.My heart pounded so hard that I tho

Chapter One Hundred and nine – You Came BackTristan's POVThe palace came into view long before I reached the gates, yet it still felt impossibly far away.I urged my horse forward again, even though the poor animal had already carried me farther and faster than any horse should have been asked to travel. Foam covered its neck, and every breath it released came harder than the last, but my heart refused to accept anything slower.Every moment mattered.Every heartbeat felt as though it carried me either closer to my family or farther away from them.The wind rushed against my face as the palace towers grew larger.I had imagined this journey many times while attending the Alpha Council.In every one of those thoughts, I had pictured myself returning to find Nina waiting in the gardens with a smile on her face.I had imagined placing both hands on her stomach and asking our child whether they had behaved while I was gone.I had imagined laughing together.Instead, I was racing home b
